Working In The Garden

It feels like spring has come to London today, it is sunny and bright and I have a sunny and bright card for you today. This sweet gardener from Sugar Nellie was a real joy to colour with my promarkers.

Right got to get on and do some more cards, catch you later.




Edit - As requested here is a list of the promarkers I have used:

Skin - Ivory; Blush; Pastel Pink
Green details - Meadow Green; Lime Green
Hat, socks, pot - Mustard; Henna; Umber
Top - Orange; Apricot
Pink Details - Pastel Pink; Magenta; Ice Grey 2
Hair - Mustard; Cocoa; Henna
Trousers - Cinnamon; Umber
Other bits - Ice grey 2; Black; Burnt Umber; Umber

There is a fab tip I picked up from the lovely blog of Jenn Muraoka - well worth a peek.


Materials:
Stamp - Elizabeth Bell Planting some love from Sugar Nellie
Ink - VersaFine Onyx Black
Colouring - Letroset Promarkers
Papers - Me and My Big Ideas
Usual suspects - Silicone glue; Paper trimmer
Other - Buttons

    What a lovely, vibrant card Kim and those little stamps are so sweet!
    I wish it was bright here, it's been a really dull and gloomy day in Hampshire today.

    Hi Kim what a wonderful and bright card, it makes you feel like your in the sun. Just love the stamp too, I must invest in some stamps next time in the UK as stamps are very limited here.
    Hugs Linda

    Your coloring is just marvy! (no pun intended!) I have not seen that brand here in the US, wonder if they sell them here?

    Blessings,
